Staupell Analytics Group (Staupell) and The Prospect Research Institute (The Institute) are excited to announce that they are bringing deeper learning opportunities to the fundraising prospect research field by partnering to offer a wide range of complementary training options. The nonprofit sector is unique and learning how to apply the fundamentals of research and data analytics to fundraising is challenging. PRI and Staupell are partnering to create learning pathways to help fundraising research professionals gain the knowledge and skills they need to help their organizations succeed. Both fundraisers who are newly entering the field and experts looking to keep current will find learning material that fits their needs.

Marianne Pelletier, Founder and Managing Director of Staupell, says “we are thrilled to be working with The Institute on bringing an entire suite of training sessions to our profession. Both Staupell and The Institute team members have robust experience supporting fundraising, and we are creating courses that we wish were offered when we started. Staupell looks forward to enhancing The Institute’s offerings with advanced analytics courses, and we look forward to sharing The Institute’s comprehensive suite of courses to our students.”

Jennifer Filla, CEO and founder of Prospect Research Institute, adds “Data analytics isn’t just for healthcare and higher education anymore. All nonprofits are valuing their data more and, increasingly, collecting more of it. That means prospect research professionals need a broad array of skills and staff who can specialize. The Institute is excited to be able to partner with Staupell to begin coordinating seamless pathways for stronger workforce development in the fundraising profession.”

Success Stories

I love your Master Class format – small group, clearly defined curriculum, solid professional information and resources and focus on discussion.  But most importantly I was impressed and delighted to see that you incorporated an additional and extremely practical layer of knowledge, through hands on experience with tools (pivot tables) or resources (Candid).  This adds real value to the educational experience you offer.

2020-Master Class

Jen’s course on insider stock and compensation was informative, interesting, and well-thought out. Jen broke down the complicated material into digestible pieces. She showed us resources that I use in my day-to-day research that I wouldn’t have otherwise known about. Jen is always quick to respond and has been helpful even after the class has ended. She answers questions thoroughly and is always pleasant.

I was able to take what I learned from the course and present the material to our front-line fundraisers. One fundraiser told me after my presentation that she discovered one of her donor’s compensation was much higher than she thought. So, already, this information has come in handy! Thanks again Jen!

The Capacity Rating Workshop was really useful. I was new to the prospect research field when I took the workshop, so it helped to demystify capacity ratings for me. The online classroom provided a great forum for interaction with the other participants and for a robust exchange of ideas. Beyond that though, Jen shared a wealth of information and resources about capacity ratings and other important aspects of prospect research. I highly recommend this workshop whether you’re new to the field or have years of experience in our profession.
